Sleeping Room

Post by Chazz » Mon Jun 01, 2015 8:56 pm

What are the swb caddy's like to sleep in? I am thinking of getting one to replace my transit connect to haul mountain bikes about and sleep in at races, but that is a lwb and is only just long enough, is there the possibility of removing the bulkhead and moving the front seats forwards in the caddy? as this is not possible in the connect. I'm around 6'2"/6'3" if it helps. Thanks in Advance Charlie If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room :D Top Springer Mad Twin Turbo poster Posts: 495 Joined: Thu Mar 27, 2014 6:03 pm Engine size/power: 1.9 TDI (104bhp)

Hi, Why not just go for the maxi and enjoy the extra space that it will bring. Top User avatar dan@biali Hyper Poster Posts: 3677 Joined: Sun Mar 06, 2011 11:32 pm Engine size/power: 2.0 Stage 3+ TFSI

Bulkhead is easy to remove and then push the seats all the way forward. Reckon you'd have enough room. There's a company that offer swivel seat conversions for the Caddy so it turns round to face the back. You could then design a bed around using the passenger seat as the headboard.

I still want it to be small enough to handle like a car, as I'm thinking of getting rid of my van and car for a caddy, I am very tempted by the potential power gains :twisted: Sounds good though, might make a flap that folds down behind the passenger seat to extend sleeping room.

The Caddy Maxi is 2.2m (just over 7ft) from rear doors to bulkhead if it helps. Cheers, Top proph3t Caddy2k Groupie Posts: 3 Joined: Thu Nov 03, 2011 8:25 pm Engine size/power: 1.2 TSI (84bhp)

I'm 6'2" and can just manage it with the bulkhead in and all my gear piled on one side, so i'd imagine with the bulkhead removed it'd work easily. Nice conversion dizzee stuff!

That answers a few questions for me. I was thinking of getting two touran passenger seats as they fold flat and making them fit somehow then putting a mattress over them but no need now as im only 5ft 7", this must be the only joy of being a short ar5e Top Chewitt Caddy2k Groupie Posts: 11 Joined: Sun Jun 21, 2015 9:05 am Engine size/power: 1.2 TSI (84bhp)
